Exam 21: Direct Behavioral Assessment: What to Record and How

Describe the details of the stimulus control that the ABLA-R test assesses with Level 6, auditory-visual combined discrimination.

Define interval recording. Distinguish between the partial-interval recording system and the whole-interval recording system.

Briefly describe momentary time-sampling recording.

According to convention, what is an acceptable IOR in a behavior modification program? What does convention mean?

What two characteristics do behaviors recorded in terms of frequency usually show?

When would one likely select a continuous recording system?

Define continuous recording. Give an example that is not in this chapter.

In a sentence or two, explain what we mean by interobserver reliability.(Describe the process, but don't give the procedures for calculating IORs.)

Using the procedure described in the text for computing IORs with interval data, compute an IOR for the data of vocalizing as recorded by observers 1 and 2 .Show all of your computations.

Name two common measures of the overall amount of a given behavior.
